“This is a journey. This is a ride. Highest 2 Lowest is Lee and Washington, reunited and good as ever.” – Mashable
“It’s a movie that gleefully kicks its characters out of their comfy environs to plunge them into New York’s rattling, noisy crowds — and it’s worth watching with the biggest audience you can find.” – The Atlantic

Brothers Denzel Washington and Spike Lee reunite for the 5th in their long working relationship for a reinterpretation of the great filmmaker Akira Kurosawa’s crime thriller High and Low, now played out on the mean streets of modern-day New York City.
